[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1336835224' post='1651750'] I'll do a demo soon. It's massive! On another note... A few pages back I mentioned my 'summer project' - to use my current pedals to create a 'stripped down' board for smaller shows and for backing MC's etc, rather than performing as Our Helical Mind in general. I've spent a few weeks planning and the board I settled on was a Diago Showman - large by many bassists standards, but tiny for me. It's was the most suitable size for my essentials. Its not powered or cabled yet (plugs in sockets to show me how much space I have) but here is draft 1... Proposed signal chain is... Stage Clix Wireless > Boss OC-2 > TC Electronic Polytune Mini > FUZZROCIOUS Grey Stache > WMD Geiger Counter > WMD Super FatMan > Custom Iron Ether Xerograph (in the space marked with tape) > Moogerfooger Cluster Flux > TC Electronic Flashback Delay The MP-201 will control 3 parameters of the Xero and the feedback of the Cluster Flux. It's likely to change... But this should work nice! [/quote] i love that this is your small board! makes me smile! my boards having a refresh atm its gotten a bit samey in sounds so im having a clearout and seeing where it takes me! andy

[quote name='GarethFlatlands' timestamp='1336836445' post='1651769'] That's right, the FM4 version would be much more useful if it's more flexible than the M series version. Still seems like a 1 trick pony to me but if you like it then that seems like the best route. [/quote] i think its a bit more versitile, its been a while since i had it, it maybe exactly the same as the one in the m5/9/13 but if you want alot of good filters without the distraction of all the other stuff its a good choice. andy

i know its in the fm4 i really liked the sound, i would used it in breakdowns etc for some strange ambient noise. but again the with the m series you can only change how many steps and there order not the tone of each step which does make it slightly less musical ? andy

really good interview again shep andy

[quote name='lxxwj' timestamp='1336776565' post='1651072'] It's a loop. Basically, it allows you to either bypass a part of your signal chain or go through it. With nothing attatched, I would think it would mute your signal. [/quote] ah i get that, ive found someone on here with an aguilar mute switch. andy

[quote name='thinman' timestamp='1336765516' post='1650872'] Quite amused to find "mute" under the effects section! One for the purists... [/quote] i know i know! just thinking if i can build it for cheaper and put it in a small enclosure it give me room for something much more fun!

all contact issues sorted as im no longer working away. please feel free to pm me on here and you will get a quick reply. sadly the last deal i did on here had alot of problems as you can see ive have had lots of deals that have gone well. andy

isnt that just a truebypass pedal? would that actually swtich my amp between operate and mute? andy

[quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1336681481' post='1649562'] Thanks dude! TC were kind enough to put it on their Facebook page so it's had a fair few views in 24 hours. WMD Super FatMan FTW! Seriously rep'in WMD at the mo!! [/quote] yeh looks very cool! woh! ill bet it has! some of the sounds out of that thing sound amazing! andy

nice video shep! i also saw on facebook that you have a new toy? andy

hi guys just looking into getting a mute/operate switch to go with my 750 and there about 40quid? and im wondering if theres the possiblity i could make one? im in the process of getting some bits together to make a true bypass looper and im thinking i could get a bigger enclosure and just put this on the end. im doing this so that i can get my tuner of my pedal board and free up some space. andy

not played the 51, but the fan is loud on the 750 not that you hear it when playing but to some its loud. awesome amp tho love mine!

dammit! that sounds so good!

Line 6 m13? Not played one but seems to be a favorite choice? Andy

[quote name='solo4652' timestamp='1335275664' post='1628440'] In one of the bands I play in, the lead guitarist is gadget-mad. He turns up with 16 floor pedals, an ebow and 3 guitars. Consequently there is always some sort of signal-path problem with his rig; feedback, dodgy connections, kilometres of cabling. When he's not spending time trying to work out why he's getting all manner of weird noises, he's forever fiddling with switches and buttons, in his own gadget world. Now, the singers are also turning up with floor effects pedals... Last rehearsal, it took almost two hours to set up. We did 2 songs because, as usual, the guitarist was plugging and unplugging this and that, chasing random screeches and weird echoes. I said that if he couldn't sort it all out for the 3rd song, I was going home. That's what happened. Afterwards, when I asked if all his STUFF was absolutely necessary, he said "Yes - I'm not going to change". I'm getting very frustrated with all the gadget-driven problems, hanging around and distractions. After 4 months of lots of hard work, we're on the verge of gigging, so I don't want to walk away now - too much time and effort invested. But, I can see this happening again and again. Don't know what to do... [/quote] does he have a pedalboard? theres nothing wrong with him having 16 pedals! like many above ive had 11/12 pedals and i used all of them if this guy uses his pedals then maybe just give him a few links to pedalboards site? andy

i really liked mine, i used to use it to get a kinda chorus sound i never had a bf-2 tho so can't say the dif between them. does sound cool infront of a fuzz tho i must say! andy

[quote name='molan' timestamp='1334839971' post='1622146'] I had one of these and absolutely loved it. Best bass head I've ever owned but, unfortunately, just too heavy for me It really is quite a weighty beast and I found I could get a lot of the tone I wanted from a tiny little TH500 (matched with the right speakers). However, if you're OK with the weight & want a serious gigging amp then, in my opinion, nothing else comes close! [/quote] couldnt agree more! i when't from an ampeg svt pro 6 to this. wanted more volume and a a/b'd the 750 with a svt-cl and it just killed it! and the headroom of this amp is silly! i still haven't got it past 3 out of 10. and if you crank the gain it gets a nice grit to its sound, simple but effective eq and first amp ive had where the deep and bright switches make a big dif! serious amp! andy

is the feedback only happening when you hit on the pd7? i'd go through every part of the rig starting at my bass and see where the feed back comes in. i dnt get feedback on my rig till i have massive amounts of gain stacked up, my bass maxed on volume(its an active bass so has a hot output) then into a swollen pickle on about 12oclock, then into a odb-3 on a similar volume setting but with the gain at about 2oclock. but i dnt get feedback till i turn on my metal muff which is cranked on the high end. and my db750 has its gain at about 2oclock so its pretty gain heavy with no gain being added anyway maybe your boosting a high frequency with out realising? i had this when i used to use a boss md-2, it just grabbed the bad frequency and caused feedback when i wasnt playing. hope atleast some of that helps? andy
